Master of Science in Leadership and Management

Through the down-sizing, re-engineering, and global competitive forces of recent years, today's organizations have fewer professionals who carry a heavier workload than in previous decades. Likewise, the extremely tight labor market in today's organizations must provide a work environment and benefits designed to keep its most productive employees or lose them to other organizations, or worse, competitors. As a result of this changing workplace, today's management professionals must be well versed in a wide variety of management skills that include team building, leadership development, conflict resolution, negotiations, diversity issues, productivity improvement strategies, planning, organizational development and change, and creative and efficient use of emerging technologies. Equally important, in keeping with Amridge University’s Christian heritage, these skills are provided in a context of ethical and moral approaches that are so badly needed in today’s society and business world. The Master of Science in Leadership and Management is specially designed to provide our graduates with these critical skills and knowledge that will help them in an organization in today's competitive workplace.

Upon completion of the Master of Science in Leadership and Management Program, the graduate will have:

Learned a wide variety of management skills which are effective in church settings or in other groups and organizations;

Learned ethical and moral regulations needed to operate in social, religious and business communities;
